The Herald Sqnare Theatre prodnc
tion "Hotel Topsy Tnrvy" which had a
run at that popular playhouse for I0:i
nights, will be presented at the Park
Saturday evening.
That it has been successful in Europe
is proved by its run of two year- at the
Folies Dramatizes. Paris, and the sue
cessfnl engagement it is now playing
at the Comedy Theatre, London. It is
of the same lively atmosphere that lias
of late characterized offerings from the
Herald Sqnare Theatre. The dialogue
is of a particularly humorous character,
and teems with wit, while the music is
bright, catchy and melodious, and
lingers with one in a way that is sure
to make it very jiopnlar. The scenic |
pictures and mountings arc elaborate,
and the costumes, are of the richest
kind. The company comprises some of
thf most prominent players of the
American stage.

Italic Commit toe—Coiitonnial.
The interest taken by the people of
the county in the matter of relio for the
coming Ceutennial induced the Exeea
tion Committee at it* late meeting to
enlarge the Committee on Relics.
It was thought that two or more

town and that these co-operating with
those already named, would be suffici
ent to have such an organization in each
township and borough, as would ennble
all the relics therein to be collected, put
in order, and brought to the Centennial
in ;rood shppe for display

ACCIDKNTS.
Mrs. M. J. Sellers of the Freep"»rt
road. Butler twp. is suffering from a
broken collar l>one. the result of an ac
cidental fall.
Andrew Liebler of Water St. while at
work in the polishing department of the
Plate Glass works Friday night fell
among the machinery and w« j caught
by a revolving cog wheel. It got a hold
on the flesh of his left arm and drew it
in. When his shoulder was reached a
great piece of flesh was torn out and the
shonlder bone crushed. His head was
cut and bruised and four ribs broken.
After the machinery was stopped Lieb
ler conld not be tiken out until the
wheel was removed. He was taken to
tiit* hospital where Drs. Pillow. Head,
laud and Grossman attended his injur,
ies On Snndav they could not yet de
termine whether he had received serious
internal Injuries. He will likely be a
cripple for life. A month ago Mr. Lieb
ler was cut on the same arm by the
breaking of a sheet «.f glass which he
was helping to carry and had not been
at work a week after recovering when
he was again unfortunate.
While little Willie Alander with
some other boys. was playing back of a
restaurant in Mars, last Friday, th>-y
amused themselves breaking a pile of
old bottles. Then Willie ran towards
the pile of broken bottles and tripped
and fell npon them, and one sharp ndge
cut out his left eye. lie was taken to
a hospital in the city where the rest of
the eye was removed and he was back
next day.

NEW SPRING DRESS GOOUS
AT THE OLD PRICES.
This Store never made such preparation for any season's trading
as for this Spring, 1900.
New Silks, New Wash Goo;?s, New Dress Goods, New Lace and Embroideries.
New I.ace Curtains, Portiers. New ideas in the Art Department—for Pillows, Center
Pieces and Renaissance Effects. New everything, large assortments, choice goods.
Less prices is the basis of our claim on your consideration. We are not taking ad
vantage of the rise in the price of Woolen Fabrics and for the present YOU enjoy
the bcne'it of our foresight in having placed large import orders mantlis ago, but
after i he}* are sold, you will have to pay more lor these goods, even here, because
we will have to pay much more for them—for the present these low prices prevail—
and we are absolutely certain that you cannot equal any of them anywhere.
New Silk Waists and Tailor Made Jacket Suits.
Advance Spring opening of Silk Waists and Suits—a glimpse of all that is new
aiul stylish for the coming season—a gathering as charming as ever was seen-every
Garment of superior quality and workmanship—New Spring Millinery.
Continuation of Sacrifie Prices on i-ll Winter Jackets, Capes, Collarettes and
Furs, Underwear, Fleeced Wrappers and Flannel Waists at one-half the prices pre
vailing elsewhere.
